The pursuit of meaning, not happiness, is what makes life worthwhile.

When we're able to put most of our energy into developing our natural talents, extraordinary room for growth exists

Talent (a natural way of thinking, feeling, or behaving) × Investment (time spent practicing, developing your skills, and building your knowledge base) = Strength (the ability to consistently provide near-perfect performance)

Figure out what you really love doing and use your strengths on a daily basis.

The absence of high-quality friendships is bad for your health, spirits, productivity, and longevity.

What works for one persons needs is almost always very different from the next.

When we build on our strengths and daily successes — instead of focusing on failures — we simply learn more.
